It is in good condition except that the right hind leg is missing and the two apical ventrites of the abdomean are detached and glued on the card with the specimen. After a short treatment with a cold 10% KOH the aedeagus was placed in a microvial with glycerol and pinned with the holotype. No type (or any other) material was found by the first author in the A. Koenig Museum in Bonn in 2000. Until the present paper, Scleropteroides was considered a monotypic genus including S. hypocrita (Hustache 1916), which is known to occur in South Korea and Japan (Morimoto 1989; Korotyaev &amp; Hong 2004; Yoshitake et al. 2004). Scleropteroides horridulus clearly differs from S. hypocrita mainly in having the longer scales on the elytra and the male aedeagus with a truncate apex, but it is very similar in general appearance to S. insularis (Voss) treated by Colonnelli (2004) as a junior synonym of S. hypocrita. A revision of Scleroperoides (Huang et al. in preparation) will elucidate species distinctions within the genus.</p> </div>	http://treatment.plazi.org/id/A40C171FFFAE4E21FF50E1EDFC38EDE2	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.
